12 GAMES ALLOWED

CHICAGO. Sept. 20. Slating of games for the -winter season, adoptioa of a role allowing a player to be taken out of a game and returned once at any time, and resumption of athletic relations between Chicago and Northwestern, were the salient features jf the annual meeting of the "Western Conference Basketball association, Saturday, at the Auditorium hotel. Conference - teams were allowed a quota of 12 conference contests during the season. Purdue filled its schedule, while Indiana has only 10 contests listed. Iowa was the only other school In the conference which did not fill its quota, landing only 10 contests. The first clash between Indiana and Purdue will take place on Jan. 23. when the Bloomington team invades Lafayette. The return contest Is carded for March 3. Purdue Plays Six Teams. The teams on Purdue's schedule, besides Indiana, are Northwestern, Ohio State, Michigan, Illinois and Iowa. Indiana got besides Purdue, the following teams for games: Ohio State, Northwestern. Minnesota and Iowa. So Indiana does not play Illinois and Michigan, of the teams Purdue meets while the Crimson five will tackle Minnesota and Purdue gets a crack at the Gophers. Wisconsin and Northwestern will open the season on Jan. 3, while most of the other schools will swing into action on Jan. 8. Adoption of the rule permitting a player to be removed from the game and put back in the lineup, is expected to mako the play faster and more interesting. The star players will thus ( be given opportunities to rest and be saved for the closing stages of the contest. This rule will meet with the hearty approval of the coaches. The schedules in part follow: PURDUE. Jan. 11 Northwestern at Purdue. Jan. 22 Ohio State at Ohio State.

present as practice time Is short and the work taken up now cannot be repeated later. Meetings have been held on Wednesday evenings heretofore, but as this Wednesday will be taken up with a regular Legion meeting and band practice, it was decided to meet on a night when there will not be so much activity at the rooms.

DODGERS, INDIANS, STRONGEST ODTFITS The Brooklyn Nationals and Cleve-

, muu Auwutiius appear me strongest ! teams in the malnr 1 aflfrilA rtArt riant

races, which yesterday' entered the final two weeks' spurt. The Chicago Americans are close behind the Indians, however, and may oust them from first place in the series starting Thursday. The Brooklyn Nationals have a lead of five games over New York and can clinch the pennant by winning six of their eight remaining contests. New York, with 12 to play and Cincinnati, with 15, then could win all their games without coming up to the Superbas. If the Cleveland Americans win seven out of their 13 games, Chicago would have to win seven out of ten and New York eight out of nine to equal them. While Brooklyn was winning yesterday New York kept pace by defeating Cincinnati in a hard 11-inning battle. The Superbas displayed good pitching strength last week, except in the two games lost to Chicago and Cincinnati. Brooklyn withstood the attack of the Reds, taking the series, two games to one, after capturing four out of five from Chicago. New York went into second place by outplaying Pittsburgh. Cleveland gained last week at the expense of second division teams and won its fifth straight victory yesterday when Bagby blanked Boston with four hits. It was his second shutout game within a week. Washington dropped three straight to the Indians after winning the odd game of the series from Chicago. The White Sox then ceme back and pounded out three victories over New York pitchers and won their fourth straight game yesterday by defeating Philadelphia, The Yankees slid back by dropping their "fourth straight contest yesterday, when they batted and fielded poorly against St. Louis.

EAGLE ASCENSION IN EIGHTH ALLOWS FARMLAND WIN, 7-4 After having Farmland under their thumb 4 to 1 until the eighth Inning, the Eagles made a grand balloon acsension and upon their return to earth found that six runs had been marked up, making the final score 7 to 4 favoring the visitors. Hawekotte was largely responsible for the break, five hits being garnered off his offerings In the frame. Errors of commission and omission allowed the runs to get across the plate. Skyock, Farmland pitcher, was unable to appear In the lineup because of injuries received when the automobile in which he was coming to the game skidded off the road and he was severely cut. Minner, local twlrlar, was loaned the visitors and pitched a good brand of ball only allowing his teammates seven hits. Luckily for Farmland they had Minner thus preventing the Eagles putting in a relief hurler in the eighth. Many Rooters Out. The game was a fair exhibition of the national game. The breaks of the game were not such as to allow flashy fielding and neither team took great chances on the bases. One of the largest crowds of the season witnessed the game, a large number of rooters from Farmland vleing with local enthusiasts for rooting honors. Next Sunday the Eagles and Giants are scheduled to start a three game series on the local lot. The score Sunday. Eagles. AB. R. H. PO. A. E.

REDS BATTLE FOR 11 INNINGS; LOSE THE GAME, 7 TO 6 NEW YORK. Sept. 19. Cincinnati dropped another notch in the National League races when the Giants took a hard fought game in the 11th inning 7 to 6. A walk to Larry Doyle by Fred Coumbe was followed by a sharp single to left, which Duncan booted long enough to allow Doyle to come all the way home from first with the inning counter. Heavy hitting by the Reds featured the game, all of their tallies being the result of home runs. Roush, Neale and Coumbe all delivered with circuit drives and a man was on a base in each case. Aside from these long hits the Reds missed many opportunities to chalk up runs with a timely hit. The game was witnessed by about 34.000 people which is probably the largest crowd the Reds will see the remainder of this season, as they are now hopelessly out of the pennant race. CINCINNATI AB. R.
